One story that stood out for me:

The fact that Canada has the top athletes, those of which the majority are women.

Canada ended up with 24 medals at these olympics.

GOLD - 7 SILVER - 10 BRONZE - 7


16 of the total medal count were won by women.



Was there any story that stood out for you at these olympics???


The one that comes to mind for me....was the guy from Norway that gave the Canadian girl his pole...after her's had broken on a cross-country event.

Cindy Klassen winning 5 medals was pretty cool to.....becoming the Canadian with the most olympic medals ever...with 6.
